RAM 1500 Revolution (Bev) - Tesla Cybertruck Competitor?

New RAM 1500 Revolution Battery Electric Vehicle (Bev) not only gives us a clear idea of ​​RAM Dare Forward 2030 Strategic Plan for the future, but also demonstrates how one of the leading pickup brands intends to change this segment. (By the way, full -size General Motors pickups headed the list of leaders for 2022, if you combine Dodge, Chevrolet and GMC sales). Futuristic RAM 1500 Revolution Bev Concept demonstrates innovative technologies that Dodge will offer in future models, in particular in RAM electrical models.

According to Mike Koval Junior, CEO of RAM Brand :

"Ram 1500 Revolution Bev Concept is our clear signal that we are on the verge of something unusual in RAM, and directly pointing out where we go on our electrified trip. on the market. "

The exterior designer team of DJ Ram approached the design of Bev, intending to revolutionize the pickup segment, creating a state -of -the -art concept that "emits force, retains its purpose and is environmentally responsible."

The concept of Revolution Bev has an exterior design that RAM describes as "brutal" - brutal but beautiful. For many, he appealed and is reminiscent of Tesla Cybertruck - another concept of an electrical apartment that has not yet been put on production. The modern RAM logo is decorated with a streamlined front part with a fully animated

Rolls -style doors , providing access to a large space for passengers without a bored rack in the middle.Bright LED headlights are integrated into the anterior bumper, and the animated LED back lanterns and the emblem highlight the back. The trunk is opened with a simple press of the button. The port from the power supply was located at the driver's door. You can still highlight hidden door handles, Side footsteps with an electric drive and a backrest with an active diffuser - all this complements the list of automated functions.

But the qualities that make this car suitable for off -road and travel are more important than chips and cheated options. RAM 1500 Revolution Bev Concept can squeeze advanced steering with 15 degrees of articulation, which will provide both greater maneuverability on narrow off -road routes and increased handling on speed routes. The body design allows you to place 24-inch wheels with 35-inch tires . The regulated pneumatic suspension has three modes: entry/exit, aerodynamic and off -road, as well as the concept equipped with self -leveling function. The RAM concept is equipped with full drive and is driven by two electric drive modules (EDM), located in the front and back of the chassis.

As for the power and range of the course, RAM claims that Revolution can increase the course range to 100 miles (160 km) in about 10 minutes by fast charging from an 800-volt DC network up to 350 kW. The new inductive charger (RAM Charger) - will charge at home as simple as possible. It automatically determines the presence of an electric pharmaceutical and its needs for charge and moves under the car to charge the battery blocks built into the car frame. All this gives the predicted 500 miles (800 km) and torque up to £ 10,000, although the final data on the stock and capacity is not yet known.

Spacious salon and body combined with the size of the battery make it possible to place more cargo. rail fastening system and floor guide RAM ensures the flexibility of the console and seat salon, as well as screeds for additional storage.

The concept also offers one continuous space in front and back, known as " the only space ", which allows to create several different configurations of the salon.

Of all the promised intellectual functions, " shadow mode " should be the most interesting in our opinion, as it allows Revolution to automatically follow the driver while it goes in front of the car. This voice activated function can be useful in situations where the driver needs to move a short distance and does not want to return to the pickup. The car will remain at a safe distance, using sensors and cameras for obstruction.

projected revolution will appear before expected, probably in 2024 , and then electrified options will become available for the entire RAM range.
